What the C's can get for Allen, Scal, etc
Posted: Wed May 27, 2009 4:39 am
After much thought, it looks like Boston took the possible NBA champs to 7 games...which is damn impressive. The best thing the C's can do this off-season after such a post season is probably dangle Tony Allen, Scalbrine in a deal to get a nice reserve that could lower the big three's minutes and help this team contend.
Before it all the team also has to decide what to do with Glen Davis. It seems more sensible to try and sign McDyess and see what teams would deal for Big Baby in a sign and trade (since his value won't be higher). Pending on what Boston is able to get for Allen, Scal (backup combo gaurd or lengthy 3).
Deals involving Allen, Scal etc.
1. Jamaal Crawford - Tony Allen, Scalabrine, and probably a few youngins or cash (Pruitt, Walker, Giddens) would get Crawford to Boston. I know many dub him a 'loser', but Jamaal would be excellent as a backup 1/2 who has potential for many big nights and can also let Pierce/Allen to get less minutes or even take some nights off.
2. Andres Noccioni - Similar to the above deal, but his contract ends a lot longer. Still Noch has the ability to stretch the floor and be a perimeter defensive stopper. He can also play a small 4 in a KG center lineup.
3. Jamaal Tinsley and lotto pick or future 1st - Would Indy unload Jamaal for expirings if it means also unloading a future pick with it? If so, could be good value for Boston.
4. Keyon Dooling and Eduardo Najara - 2 Solid guys that can really help the 2nd unit. Dooling can play both guard slots and EN can be a nice bruiser underneath.
5. James Posey- Been mentioned before, but now it's possible Boston can swindle their 1st Rd pick as well or Julian Wright if it means saving the Hornets that much money...could be worth while.
6. Reggie Evans and Willie Green - would fit 2 roles off the bench and Philly may even throw in that 18th pick as well.
7. Beno Udrih and Fransico Garcia - Udrih's contract is nasty which is why Garcia may be thrown in such a deal...either that their 2nd rounder which is 31st.
8. Jason Kapono and future 1st or current 2nd rounder. Another shooter would be nice, but JK's deal runs through 2012. If DA loves the draft he may bite.
9. Songalia and Stevenson - May be another almost perfect scenario. Stevenson can play both gaurd slots and is a hustle-bussle defensive 2. Songalia can stretch the floor and can be that neccessary dirty guy to come off the bench.
